Nepal's Flood Relief Support

| |

Amidst the aftermath of a catastrophic earthquake, our beloved Nepal has been hit again! And this time it’s by the massive flood and landslides triggered by incessant rains. So far the flood has claimed the lives of over 200 people and has done innumerable damage to the homes and villages of many Nepali citizens as well as the infrastructure of the country. Over 48,000 homes are estimated to be submerged in Nepal alone. The most affected regions are in the Terai, an economically significant region that will leave rippling impact across the country.

The flood has led to shortages of drinking water and food which will no doubt lead to a humanitarian crisis, as warned by the Nepal Red Cross.

We humbly request that all of you contribute what you can in order to provide funds to the needy to combat this natural disaster. As a community, Let’s come together once again to answer the call for need.

Surita Silwals' Beat Cancer Fund

| |

Our dear friend Mrs. Surita Silwal was recently diagnosed with life threatening stomach cancer. A routine visit to the doctor for stomach pain couple months ago, turned out to be aggressive stomach cancer which she has been battling with treatment at Seattle Cancer Care Alliance.

It was just 18 months ago, she had survived a horrible car accident with her family in CA. Now, just as she is springing back to full health, another terrible diagnosis has surfaced.

In order to help her during this unfortunate phase of her life, we are reaching out for any help you can give her.

About Surita:Surita is one of the brightest stars of our Nepalese community here in Seattle. She, her husband Anil and her son have lived here in Seattle for past 9 years. Many of you know her as a tremendous friend, a loving mother and all around amazing human being. Even in those difficult times, she's been a testament to strength, determination and positive attitude.

Cancer Update:She was diagnosed with cancer in her stomach lining and lymph nodes in May. Since then she has been undergoing Chemotherapy once every 2-3 weeks at Seattle Cancer Care Alliance. Recently, a blockage in her intestine due to progressing cancer had hospitalized her. However, doctors were able to treat the blockage without requiring surgery. She continues to be in good spirits and is fighting cancer with everything she has.

How to Help:We would like to request your help in supporting her in this battle against cancer. We appreciate any amount you are able to donate, which will go towards supporting her medical and personal needs during this time. Please also keep her in your prayers and help us spread the word.

Please write "Pray for Surita" in the memo so we can track your donation.

Lastly, we are beyond thankful for the time you have taken to read this campaign for our beloved friend.
